"We have had another very
successful year," according to
Captain Ryan McClinchey,
Commanding Officer of
Maitland Squadron.
"This parade signifies the
achievements of all the
Cadets on parade over the
one to six years of service
you have dedicated to the
Squadron. As seven of this
year's senior Cadets move
on to their post -secondary
endeavors, we know the Air
Cadet Program has well
equipped you with the con-
fidence and experience you
will need to be successful.
Best of luck to you all, you
leave some big boots to fill.
For the rest of our Cadets,
you will have many great
opportunities to lead our
Squadron into our 40th Sea-
son this fall."
